Abstract: This paper sets out an approach which we call semantic blogging. We start from the observation that blogging is a highly popular and effective approach to information sharing. We then assert that certain ideas taken from the semantic web research programme can enrich and extend the blogging paradigm. We describe what we mean by semantic blogging, and why this approach is beneficial. We are building a demonstrator, set in the context of small group bibliography creation and management, which will illustrate the advantages of our approach.
